2026 Worlds Womens FS PBP - La Vie En Drone

[MacMadame]

Gubanova reminds me of Sydney Sweeney. She has Resting Smug Face that I try to ignore

To me it reads more like "I have no more f'cks to give" and I kind of appreciate that given how earnest the sport is.

 

[Private Citizen]

Gubanova mostly getting it done. The 2A in sequence looked short to me, and the spins level 3. Program is simpler than what we’ve seen so far. I’d have this below Guttmann for sure (and Shin in the free). Probably Petrokina too.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I want Gubs to skate to the Poltergeist soundtrack next year so we get some feistier ghosts.

 

[flyingsit]

Well skated but so fricking boring.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I'd give it to Shark Naki

 

[Karen-W]

Gubs started off strong but really petered out at the end. That SHOULD drop her below Everhardt, IMO.

 

[slicekw]

A good fighting-burnout skate. Gubanova’s jumps always throw me, she often seems off-angle going up, but lands fine. She’s really grown this season.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Nastya, if you're looking for other great ideas for programs, I am willing to read a phone book in monotonous voice for you.

 

[Firedancer]

The second half felt really low energy

 

[Colonel Green]

I know she's been doing it for basically her whole career, but it startles me every time!

Yeah, it always looks to me like she aborted the takeoff.

 

[Vagabond]

As the ghost fades, the shark is rising from the depths.

 

[Karen-W]

Hmph. Behind Sarah in the FS but not by enough to fall behind her overall.

 

[Wyliefan]

As the ghost fades, the shark is rising from the depths.

Will the shark nab the drowning woman? Or will the drowning woman outswim the shark?

Oh, look, Pinzarrone actually beat me to that....

 

[Sally1214]

Gubanova looks like another skater who's ready for a fun-in-the-sun vacation. I think she gave everything she had left to give on the ice today.

 

[Jay42]

If Lara and Nina Pinzarrone had skated right after each other it could really change the perception of Nina's program with the whole girl dying in a shipwreck story.

From now on, the skate order needs to be arranged thematically rather than by placements. The voidiest programs go last.

Honestly sometimes I wish they would arrange the skating order by how well the music flows from one skater to the next.

 

[Private Citizen]

Pinzarrone is getting really lucky on the lack of review calls. I’d review a lot more than the panel would. This will score bigly and could well end up on the podium.

 

[Lanie]

I’m sick and tired of that program, but that was lovely

 

[Karen-W]

The way this tech panel hasn't bothered with reviewing most of Pinzarrone and Chiba's jumps both in the SP and so far today for Nina gives me little hope that Chiba will lose any TES for her small jumps in about 15 min.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Oooh, that sliding movement in her choreo sequence was beautiful!

 

[Citlali]

Nina

That was lovely!

 

[beckab81]

Shocked at how few reviews have been called for Nina. It's a beautiful program, but her jumps are so tiny I'd probably review the majority of them.

 

[Colonel Green]

As always with Nina, we'll see what the panel does, but that was very nice.

 

[slicekw]

Nina continuing to amaze everyone. That was gorgeous.

 

[Desperado]

I love a bling-less red dress but this music is too calm (sleep inducing) for me.

Lovely skate though.

 

[delayedaxel]

Oh, look, Pinzarrone actually beat me to that....

Maybe she should skate to something more energetic? Ricky Martin, perhaps?

 

[annie_mg]

Pinzarrone cast a spell on the whole arena. She really is special, I don't care about the jumps.

 

[jlai]

Nina's small jumps should have gotten her lower scores but it may not. grrr. Lara was better
